Kenmore Elite Range Parts

The Gas Oven Ignitor is an OEM replacement part for Frigidaire gas ranges and ovens. It uses electricity to generate a spark that ignites the burner flames for heating. To check if the ignitor is the issue, look inside the broiler oven while the oven is turned on. If the element is glowing a bright red, it's getting power. If not, it may not be getting enough power to ignite the gas and should be replaced.

Symptoms of a bad gas ignitor can include:

• The oven or burners failing to ignite or stay lit consistently  
• Diminishing heating performance over time
• Burners that intermittently ignite or go out

Causes stem from normal wear with extended use. The ignitor's ability to spark diminishes as parts degrade. No spark means no gas ignition.

This OEM replacement part is compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore brands.

The Light Bulb (40W) is an OEM part for Frigidaire appliances. Specifically designed to fit and function with Frigidaire models, this 40-watt bulb illuminates the interior of your oven, making it easier to check on the progress of your baking or roasting without opening the oven door.
